Monday Spotlight: Denyse Bridger

To kick off this week long visit with everyone here I’ll introduce myself and let you know where you can find me in cyberspace! (This could be your chance to learn where to avoid me, too, couldn’t it?? LOL)

So, quick bio: I am Canadian born and bred, and a lifelong dreamer – head in the clouds for as long as I can remember, really. I began writing at an early age – won my first essay contest at the tender age of 8, I think? And, I really can’t recall a time when I wasn’t creating in some artistic form. My life has had several on-going love affairs that shape much of what I write, the American West, Victorian England, cowboys, a passion for pirates, Greek Gods, and Ancient Egypt. The other endless love affair in my life is Italia and all its magic, beauty, and dazzling culture. That passion spills into all aspects of my life. My next major fantasy novel is being set in Sicily.

My first major fantasy novel was AS FATE DECREES. (Available in bookstores everywhere, and on Amazon’s international sites.) The novel relies heavily on Greek Mythology, and is set in Ancient Greece and modern Athens. If you enjoy a tale of Gods, Destiny, and the battles of an Eternal Champion, this is the book for you! (Less than six months after publication, it was a finalist for the 2008 Aurora Award.) Not surprisingly, there’s a touch of romance throughout, of course! A visit to my website will show the diversity of what is currently available, and the mixing of genres and styles that will be employed in many up-coming projects as well. And there are always tons of stories in the works!! No less than 8 at the moment, and I wonder why my brain hurts some days. Maybe it’s all the voices wanting to be heard??

Hello darling. As always fabulous stuff… If you haven’t picked up a Denyse Bridger yet I would start with Royal Consort…but if you really want something to get your blood racing then Games of Seduction, which is hot, hot, hot!!!!!

Well Hi there hon. I have to agree with Brigit. Having read Royal Consort myself I would say it is a definite steamy read! As far as the question on how many works in progress you have…I won’t email the answer, as I’m sure it’s in the bazillions. You have such a creative mind that I bet a new story is brewing in your head as we speak.

You’re a talented and seductive writer Denyse! Don’t you dare stop teasing us with your words for one minute!

Review Star Rating Definitions

1 Star – We currently do not review any story with a 1 star rating. If it’s DNF or a “wall-banger” we decline to review.

2 Stars — Not wonderful, but tolerable. There may be some minor editing glitches but not enough to stop you reading. Not a wall-banger, but nothing you’d re-read. This is a book you would borrow from the library – not buy- and never check out again. You might recommend it to a friend with a mention of the glitches, knowing that something in the plot or story would still appeal to them regardless.

3 Stars — Good. Mostly enjoyable. You made it through and didn’t consider it a waste of time or money. The story was strong enough or the conflict tight enough, so even when the book faltered, it was able to draw you back in and keep you. There’s a chance you’ll recommend it to a friend, but it wouldn’t go on your keeper shelf.

4 Stars — Very Good. You’re glad you were the one who got to review the book. You would probably buy it and would definitely recommend it to your friends. You liked the characters and the plot. The writing style was good and the editing clean.

5 Stars — Great! You would definitely buy this book. You would definitely recommend it to your friends. You really loved the characters and the plot and would consider looking for this authors back list or making her an autobuy. The writing and editing were superb.

LASR Best Book – For a book or story that is truly exceptional. You think about it when you’re not reading it. You wonder what happens to the characters when you finish. You would absolutely buy everything else this author had to offer. The highest praise – and reserved for only a few.

SPICY: Contains actual love scenes and may include detailed descriptions of foreplay and consummation.

HOT: Contains sizzling and very detailed love scenes throughout and graphic, explicit content which may be offensive to some.
